templates

Description

Module templates array. All module templates should be registered here, so on requiring template shop will search template path in this array.

Type
  • array of strings

  • two-dimensional array of strings (in case of theme-specific templates)

Mandatory

no

Example
'templates' => [
    'order_dhl.tpl' => 'oe/efi_dhl/out/admin/tpl/order_dhl.tpl'
],

Theme-specific templates

To extend templates for a specific theme, insert them wrapped with additional array into ‘templates’, use the theme ID as a key:

'templates' => [

    //Module extends template:
    'Template name' => 'Path to module template',

    //Module extends Theme-specific template:
    'Theme ID' => [
        'Template name' => 'Path to module template',
    ]
]

Warning

You can not use admin as a ‘Theme ID’ here.

Example:

'templates' => [

    //Module extends template:
    'order_paypal.tpl' => 'path/to/admin/module/template/order_paypal.tpl',
    'ipnhandler.tpl'   => 'path/to/module/template/ipnhandler.tpl',
    'more.tpl'         => 'path/to/module/template/moreDefault.tpl',

    //Module extends Theme-specific template:
    'flow_theme' => [
        'more.tpl' => 'path/to/module/template/moreFlow.tpl',
    ]
]

Customizing theme-specific templates

Theme-specific templates can be customized by extending the theme they were created for:

'templates' => [
    'order_paypal.tpl' => 'path/to/admin/module/template/order_paypal.tpl',
    'ipnhandler.tpl'   => 'path/to/module/template/ipnhandler.tpl',
    'more.tpl'         => 'path/to/module/template/moreDefault.tpl',

    'flow_theme' => [
        'ipnhandler.tpl' => 'path/to/module/template/ipnhandlerFlow.tpl',
        'more.tpl'       => 'path/to/module/template/moreFlow.tpl',
    ],

    'flow_theme_child' => [
        'more.tpl'   => 'path/to/module/template/moreMyCustomFlow.tpl',
    ]
]

In this particular example a child theme: flow_theme_child extends a parent theme: flow_theme. After activating flow_theme_child:

  • moreMyCustomFlow.tpl template would be used instead of more.tpl.

  • ipnhandlerFlow.tpl template would be used instead of ipnhandler.tpl.
